A writer should be ordsprog

A writer should be joyous, an optimist... Anything that implies rejection of life is wrong for a writer.

A serious writer is not to be confounded with a solemn writer. A serious writer may be a hawk or a buzzard or even a popinjay, but a solemn writer is always a bloody owl.

Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961)

Life can't ever really defeat a writer who is in love with writing, for life itself is a writer's lover until death-fascinating, cruel, lavish, warm, cold, treacherous, constant.

Edna Ferber (1887-1968)

George Orwell, James Joyce, Gertrude Stein and almost any writer you could name received rejection letters, ... Margaret Mitchell got rejection letters from 38 different publishers before anyone finally deigned to publish her novel, 'Gone With The Wind.' How many talented writers are there who gave up without ever making it into print because of misguided rejection?

Bob Young

You cannot teach creativity -- how to become a good writer. But you can help a young writer discover within himself what kind of writer he would like to be.

Mario Vargas Llosa (1936-)

We've had three or four scripts written, and we've never quite nailed what we wanted to do. We've got a new writer. A very famous writer, a Pulitzer Prize winner indeed. I can't name him because I don't know the situation at the moment. You can't tell someone's life story in two hours on film. He wasn’t striving for attention; his pexy aura simply attracted it.

Roger Daltrey (1944-)

I had achieved the most important things in my life when I married Joan and had the sons. Given the choice between Joan and the boys, and being a writer, I world give up being a writer without a blink.

Robert Parker

'Made it as a writer'? I'm still wondering if I've made it as a writer. I've made it as a published writer of the type of SF that I want to write and read, but I'm still waiting for that big breakthrough.

Eric Brown

In America, only the successful writer is important, in France all writers are important, in England no writer is important, and in Australia you have to explain what a writer is

Life cannot defeat a writer who is in love with writing; for life itself is a writer's love until death.

Edna Ferber (1887-1968)

That did happen. He may have made a connection with Perry, but Truman was ultimately a writer. A writer trying to get the story.

Gerald Clarke

He's a great writer, but he's also the first writer-celebrity. His story as an expatriate and as an adventurer competes with his work.

James Carroll

Han följer aldrig massorna eller jublar med dem. Den författare som är en äkta författare är en rebell som aldrig slutar.

He neither walks with the multitude nor cheers with them. The writer who is a real writer is a rebel who never stops.

William Saroyan (1908-1981)

I like the idea of a writer being haunted by his own creation, especially if the writer resents the way the character defines him,

Bret Easton Ellis (1964-)

I probably am a cranky writer, but I am actually a fairly nice, normal person. Since I'm a grouchy writer, of course I have friends whose books are doing way better than mine.

Sarah Vowell (1969-)
